The immaturity of neurons differentiated from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) presents difficulties for modeling late-onset neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease. Now, Miller et al. (2013) provide a strategy for inducing aging-related phenotypes in hiPSC-derived neurons, enabling in vitro study of late-onset neurodegenerative diseases.
由人诱导多能干细胞(hiPSC)分化而来的神经元不成熟,这给模拟帕金森病等迟发性神经退行性疾病带来了困难。现在,Miller 等人(2013)提供了一种在 hiPSC 衍生神经元中诱导与衰老相关表型的策略,使迟发性神经退行性疾病的体外研究成为可能。
